This page walks through each search path and the right office for each kind of record.

Kapolei Jail Mugshots and HPD District 8

Kapolei is served by the Kapolei Police Station at 1100 Kamokila Boulevard, Kapolei, HI 96707. The main line is (808) 723-8400 and the fax is (808) 723-8416. District 8 covers Kapolei, Ewa Beach, Ewa Gentry, Ocean Pointe, and the rest of the Leeward corridor out to Waianae. Kapolei is often called the "Second City of Oahu" due to rapid growth since the 1990s. The station sits in the heart of the area and handles patrol, traffic, and response for the whole district.

The station also houses District 8 detective units and records intake staff.

The Waianae Substation at 85-939 Farrington Highway, Waianae, HI 96792 backs up the Leeward side. The phone is (808) 723-8600. Kapolei Station staff can answer general questions about recent arrests made in Kapolei, but they will refer you to the HPD Records Division for any official copy of a booking photo or report.

Patrol teams cover master-planned neighborhoods in Kapolei, Ocean Pointe, Ewa Beach, and Ewa Gentry. The area has mixed retail, new housing tracts, and the Ka Makana Alii shopping hub. Traffic enforcement is a priority on Kapolei Parkway, Fort Barrette Road, and the H-1 interchange.

Kapolei Arrest Logs

The HPD arrest logs are the go-to source for recent arrests in Kapolei. HPD posts a fresh log each day. It stays on the web for 14 days, then it drops off. Each entry shows the date and time of arrest, name, age, sex, and race of the arrestee, the arresting officer, the nature of the offense, and the report number. The log does not show the booking photo itself. You have to ask the Records Division to pull that.

Under the HPD public access policy, only actual logs or photocopies go out. HPD does not search by name for you. You have to read the log on your own. Juvenile info is redacted.

OCCC Booking for Kapolei Arrests

Adults arrested in Kapolei are booked at the Oahu Community Correctional Center at 2199 Kamehameha Highway, Honolulu, HI 96819. The phone is (808) 832-1777. OCCC takes pre-trial detainees and some sentenced male felons in the reintegration track. It is the largest jail in the state with about 950 beds. The booking photo is taken at intake and held in the state OffenderTrak file.

The same booking photo follows an inmate through the state system.

Visitors must call (808) 832-1633 between 9 a.m. and noon to set up a visit. Hours run daily from 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. except on state holidays. Each slot is 30 minutes with no more than two visitors at a time. Check in 15 minutes early.

For money drops, the Business Office Window takes cash up to $60 per inmate per day from family in the first 30 days. After that, cashier's checks or payroll checks made out to OCCC work. Credit and debit cards are not accepted.

Kapolei Inmate Search

Use the Hawaii DPS Inmate Search to find a person held after a Kapolei arrest. The tool takes full or partial name, date of birth, or offender ID. Results show facility, custody status, and offender number. The same search works if the inmate has been moved from OCCC to Halawa Correctional Facility or another state site.

For movement and release alerts, register with the Hawaii VINE system. Pick Hawaii from the list. Enter a name or ID. Add a phone or email. VINE will send a free alert when the person is released, moved, or given a court date.

Kapolei District Court and Judiciary Complex

Kapolei holds the Ronald T.Y. Moon Judiciary Complex, the main court hub for the Leeward side of Oahu. The complex houses the Kapolei District Court and Family Court. Misdemeanor and traffic cases from Kapolei, Ewa, and Waianae are heard here. Felony cases go to the First Circuit Court in Honolulu. You can look up case status and hearing dates on eCourt Kokua.

eCourt Kokua takes searches by name, case number, or attorney. The site shows case type, next hearing date, filing date, and case status. There is no fee for basic search. Certified copies of orders come from the clerk's office in person or by mail.

Kapolei Criminal History Records

For a full conviction history tied to a Kapolei resident, use the Hawaii Criminal Justice Data Center. HCJDC is at 465 S. King Street, Room 102, Honolulu, HI 96813. The phone is (808) 587-3279. The office handles name-based and fingerprint-based checks for the whole state. Section 846-9 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes Chapter 846 says conviction info is public and non-conviction info is sealed.

The online eCrim portal offers name-based searches for $5 each and official records for $12. Paper name checks at the HCJDC office cost $30. Public Access Site printouts cost $25.

Public access to government records in Hawaii runs under the Uniform Information Practices Act. The Office of Information Practices enforces UIPA. Chapter 92F of the Hawaii Revised Statutes sets out the rules. Section 92F-12(a)(13) makes inmate info public. Section 92F-12(a)(5) makes adult arrest info public too.

Kapolei Jail Mugshots Retention

Kapolei arrest records carry set retention rules under state policy. A felony conviction record stays in the file forever. A misdemeanor conviction runs at least 10 years. A traffic conviction runs 5 to 10 years. An arrest with no conviction stays in the file for at least 5 years. Juvenile records are sealed at age 18 in most cases. The booking photo and the fingerprint card stay with the record for the life of the file.

A redacted copy hides names, home addresses, phone numbers, dates of birth, social security numbers, and medical info. Your own info stays in when you request your own record. The state follows these rules across every agency that holds Kapolei arrest data, from the police station to the jail to HCJDC.

Under state law, only an agency that holds the record has to answer a UIPA request. A third party that has a copy does not. That rule keeps record control with the office that owns the file.

Kapolei Records Search Tips

Start with the state DPS tool for any live lookup. It is free. It is fast. A partial name works. From there, check the HPD or county police log for recent arrests. For older cases, go to eCrim and pull a conviction history by name. Each step adds more data without a big fee.

Keep your request clear and short. Give the full legal name. Add the date of birth if you know it. Add the offender ID if you have it. The offender ID gives the cleanest match since names can repeat across the system. The agency can work faster when the request is tight.

Sign up for VINE alerts when you want passive tracking. Set the phone or email. The system will push alerts when something changes. That saves you from calling the jail or pulling the inmate search day after day.
